@schumer.senate.gov you are such a disappointment. You sold out Obamacare- for what? You destroyed momentum for what? You killed hope, for what? You suck - please retire.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social I noticed hearing people laugh on Tuesday when trump spoke to the military leaders. Does trump have a staff of people who stand near cameras to create the illusion of people supporting him? Are they paid with taxpayer money?

Texas Republicans are forcing a vote on their rigged election maps.
If they knew they could win the election — they wouldn’t be stealing 5 congressional seats.
This is a blatant, racist power grab.

The White House has ordered the US Dept. of Justice to prioritize denaturalization: voiding the citizenship of US citizens.
Who will it denaturalize? "Any" case that it "determines to be sufficiently important".
Point 10 leaves the criteria opaque and arbitrary.

If you haven’t been paying attention to Texas: San Antonio just elected its first openly gay mayor, Gina Ortiz Jones, who will become the first Asian-American female mayor of a major city in Texas. In McKinney TX, voters chose Bill Cox for mayor defeating a candidate backed by Governor Abbott. LFG 🔥

I don't want this to get lost: after RFK Jr. finished with his tantrum, he ADMITTED he is blocking BILLIONS in federal child care funding.
That needs to change IMMEDIATELY.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.
This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

The student paper at the college at which I teach reports a "tsunami of takedown requests" from international students terrified of being targeted for innocuous, legitimate op-eds & opinions.. Many ask in person--leave no trace in writing. Reminds me of my father's account of studying in the USSR.
